hey ladies, I have not felt LO move at all today. she normally moves all day everyday and is very active. Starting to get nervous. I have drank sugar and normally that gets her going allot and still no movement. This never happened with DD, Should I be worried?

did you try laying on your left side? if you dont' get any movement after that, maybe go in? they can give you a scan or something to see what's going on
I would go to LD. I'm always loathe to call into my OB bc my husband is a dr and I know how much he dislikes getting calls on the w/e not that he EVER let's his patients know this but if I didn't feel movement I'd call. Actually I'd just go to LD. I was there at 35w1d for prodromal labor and they said that if anything, I MUST come in if I feel lack of movement.
If the usually tricks of sugary drinks and foods don't do it and you don't' have a doppler, I would go straight to L&D triage. Hope your baby is just having a lazy day!!
Ditto what PP's have said. I had that problem last week, I called the doctor, and they said if she hadn't reacted to eating/drinking and laying down, then come in. They did an NST and she was just fine. Definitely call!
Thanks ladies just came back and LO is fine! THANK GOD!! they put her on monitors for a while she didn't want to corporate for the first 35-45 mins and shortly after she started moving heart rate sped up and they sent me home!! yeah!!!! Thanks for all the advice

go in. Decreased movement can be a sign of something serious (though she's likely just napping and will kick when you get there...)

I would definitely call or just go in right away if they don't pick up. I think my doctor said that was a number reason to go in immediately besides being in labor.
ETA: Saw your update after I posted. Glad to hear your LO is okay!
Re: no movement today :(
Exactly my thoughts.
